Fashion Plates: What To Wear To 3 Hot, New NYC Restos
So, you've scored that impossible reservation at the city's most-talked-about restaurant—now all you have to worry about is figuring out what to wear to dinner. Is the vibe rustic and casual, sleek and modern, or full-on romance? It doesn't matter. Because we've got all the answers for every setting, with a trio of on-point outfits to sport at three of NYC's most recently opened hot spots.
Try them all, but don't forget to tailor your ensemble to the aesthetic. From the Upper East Side's swankiest new date spot to the freshest experimental restaurant and bar in Brooklyn, these buzzy bistros are sure to attract the fashion set, and in these getups, that's going to mean you. Better get used to the staring.
Willow Road is Chelsea's newest hotspot — The gastropub combines the laid-back feel of a sports bar (mirrors turn into televisions right before your eyes) with the modern accents of a downtown hideout. The menu caters to all kinds of occasions, whether you're on a hot date (get the Mussels a la Plancha and the Charred Bean Salad!), or meeting friends for a Sunday Funday (we love the fried chicken and the mac n' cheese, too!). To match the high-end feel of the Chelsea 'hood, you'll want to dress to impress. But, feel free to balance out a statement blazer with a more casual jeans-and-booties ensemble to show off your chilllll vibe.
Clockwise, from top left: Hudson Krista Super Skinny Jeans, $183, available at Hudson; Clover Canyon Sequin Blazer, $313, available at Oxygen Boutique; Anthropologie Crystal Sorrel Necklace, $48, available at Anthropologie; H&M T-Shirt, $9.95, available at H&M; Vince Camuto Hame Booties, $159, available at Vince Camuto.
